Slice HD for the iPad

This is a fun game to play, and I often found myself jerking my hand back after being virtually “cut.” It hurt every now and again, but just for a split second before my brain caught up with what’s going on. This is one of the best uses of the touchscreen I’ve seen in a long time, and while a few levels ended with me being cut when I was sure my hand was far enough away from the blade, everything works well enough to avoid frustration.

ProtoDojo Controller Prototype

Using an Arduino, I hacked my old NES controller to control micro servos with custom conductive arms that simulate touches to the screen of my iPad. The servos are attached to the screen with mini suction cups and can be easily positioned for any game.

So clever! And they say gamers lack ambition ;)

Engadget: It's Apple's 'post-PC' world -- we're all just living in it

In a post-PC world, the experience of the product is central and significant above all else. It’s not the RAM or CPU speed, screen resolution or number of ports which dictate whether a product is valuable; it becomes purely about the experience of using the device. What that means is that while Motorola and Verizon will spend millions of dollars advertising the Xoom’s 4G upgrade options, CPU speed, and high-resolution cameras, Apple need only delight consumers and tell them that specs and and speed are the domain of a dinosaur called the PC. Apple isn’t claiming victory in the Space Race — it’s ceding space to the competition.

But guess who gets Earth all to itself? Apple’s not saying that it beats other tablets on the market. It’s saying “we do one thing, and these guys do something else altogether.” They’re not competition — they’re not even playing the same game!
